The Dexter Sani-Safe Cook's Knife is a workhorse chef's knife with a 20 cm (200 mm) straight-edge blade and a yellow handle. It handles chopping, dicing, slicing and mincing across the whole menu, and the yellow handle makes it easy to slot into a colour-coded HACCP system.
The blade is DEXSTEEL high-carbon stainless steel, and the textured polypropylene handle is sealed to the blade so there are no gaps for food or bacteria. Made in the USA and NSF certified, it is built for the daily grind of commercial kitchens.

What is the colour handle for?
Colour-coded handles help stop cross-contamination by keeping a knife to one food group. Many venues use yellow for cooked meats or poultry, depending on your plan, but follow your own food safety plan.
Can it go in the dishwasher?
Dexter recommends hand washing and sanitising. Commercial dishwashers can dull the edge and knock the blade against other items.
Is the 20 cm length right for me?
The 20 cm blade is the most popular all-round size: long enough for most prep, but easy to control on a standard board.
How often should I sharpen it?
Give the edge a few strokes on a honing steel before each shift to keep it aligned, and sharpen it properly on a whetstone or sharpener whenever honing no longer brings the bite back. In a busy kitchen that is often every few weeks.
What cutting board should I use with it?
Use a polyethylene, rubber or timber board. Glass, stone, ceramic and steel benches will dull the edge quickly and can chip it.
